              Portraits of Laura's mother. Oil on linen, 2008. 
                  
              Retratos de la madre de Laura. Olio sobre lino, 2008.

                   In Laura's project of portraits of her grandfather (below), she explored various relationships between time, memory (fading and distortion), identity, and death. Using a clothes-line setup she hung many small portraits of oil, watercolor and tempera on canvas, mylar, tracing paper and cloth. She also printed original drawings as silkscreen prints, using translucent ink, translucent paper and transparent mylar, to achieve effects of fading and reflection with light passing through the surfaces.



                   En su proyecto de retratos de su abuelo (abajo), exploraba varias relaciones entre el tiempo, la memoria--los aspectos de desaparecer y distorsión, la identidad, y la muerte. Con la estructura de hilo (como lo de colgar la ropa para secar), ella colgó muchos retratos pequeños hecho en olio, acuarela, y acrilico sobre lienzo, acetato, y tela. Tambien estampó dibujos como grabados de seriagrafia, usando tinta translucida, papel translucida, y acetato, para obtener efectos de desaparecer y reflejo con la luz pasando por las hojas.
